Hi! Somebody in team 2 in the dojo had a notebook that was booting windows 8 and running ubuntu in a vm because they didn't want to be guinea pigs for secure boot on ubuntu. Sorry that I'm so terrible with names I can't remember who it was. Anyway, I thought you could use this that recently came up in an internal list here at Canonical:

(quoted with permission :-) ) So, 12.10 should have you safely outside of guinea pig territory already. If you need the LTS, wait for 12.04.2 (2013-01-31).
